What can you do with it?Well, in Outlook 2007, you can 'Customize the Quick Access Toolbar', and call the macro from there.

This is not the same as an 'out of office' reply, which goes to anyone who sends a mail.

In this case, when I hit 'reply to', I have three different 'canned replies' ('yes', 'no' and 'it will cost you'), which fill out the text, and add the attachment. Crucially, the macro doesn't send the mail, so I can modify it by hand, and then send it.In previous versions of Outlook, I imagine you have to do something like customizing the toolbar (right click), or just call the macro 'manually', via the tools->macros menu (or something like that - cf here).

Last week, I initiated something in a not-very-swiss way. I sent off texts inviting 9 other families (who all have kids about Kalia's age) to come for a picnic by the lake. Bring your own do, meaning people didn't have to give an answer, or decide in advance. We only had one family (and a half) turn up, but it spent a really nice afternoon with Franck & Florence - who we met nearly 5 years ago at the birth preparation classes! Kalia and Enzo played 3 hours non-stop, without arguing or fighting!

I met Pierrick many moons ago. We hit it off immediately. Back in the days when we were single, we often crossed the channel for a weekend to see each other. With time, and distance, and work, and marriage, and children, we see each other a lot less often. So we were overjoyed to spend a few evenings together with them (they were on holiday in our flat while we were 'away').
